Winter Wedding

I like the idea of using a single colour of card for wedding cards.  With a winter wedding, what better than an icy pearlised, textured white?


Unfortunately it was so shiny it didn't photograph at all well - so just extreme close-ups....... 

Rather simple, with a number of different die-cuts,  these were layered up with gel glue to create a dimensional card.  The card and a slightly smaller panel, as well as all the elements (other than the flower) were cut from the same type of card.  A strip of circles was placed across the centre of the card, two nesting die panels layered on top of each other with letter die cuts spelling out 'WEDDING DAY' was glued to the top and this was placed in the centre of the strip die cut.


A rose was made from co-ordinating pearlised paper using a number of punched flowers and mounted onto part of a die cut flourish at the edge of the central panel. The flower was embellished with white seed beads.


To finish, the card was placed in a matching box lined with silver and white snowflake tissue paper.
